4 WR free agent signings bound to make a difference

WR Eric Decker to the Jets: Decker’s length, sharp routes and soft hands should make him a quality possession receiver for Geno Smith.

WR Hakeem Nicks to the Colts: The anticipated healthy return of Reggie Wayne and addition of Nicks gives Andrew Luck two established outside receivers to complement speedy slot T.Y. Hilton.

WR Steve Smith to the Ravens: With a talented quarterback and an established big-play threat in Torrey Smith already in place, Steve Smith could enjoy a rebirth of sorts with the Ravens.

WR Golden Tate to the Lions: Detroit has been searching for an ideal complement to Calvin Johnson for years and few seem better suited to handle this role than Tate, whose average of 8.0 yards gained after each catch was better than any wide receiver who caught more than 15 passes in 2013.
